Out damn spot. Out I say
It’s not going away
Bloodpact entwined
Absolutes collide
The chorus sings
All is not fine
Concentrate
Abdicate
The livid spheres ripped out in the red
Can’t manifest
Can’t handle the manifestation
Are you killing kin and refusing tacit?
Are we claiming stars and refusing compassion?
Are we hanging behind that tree only claiming misery?
Are we claiming condition as un-moving fact
A static and reticent universe track?
There’s mud on the dirt.
There’s blood on the dirt.
You’re red in claw and fang
Choking on life and living on the Novocain.

You’re witnessing their blood
Trudging through chicanery
Coin operated canaries
Life reflecting eternal scourge
Fueling the creative urge
Refusing oblivion’s face
Bloodied prose
Infinity
Panegyric
Memory
Mortality
A half-mast flag won’t bring their lives back
Their lives were not their fault
We thrive when we lionize
But why these penultimate lives?

I've Envied

The matriarch cries
Slowly escaping this earth
Enticing the fire in my mother’s ire
Those four walls have been my haven for years
Self-imposed apartheid catalyzed by fear
There you are
Creeping up on me
I refuse to have you as a part of act 3
Attach myself to transcendent objects
Never feeling your contempt
The patriarch sleeps
Imbibing the dream
But someday you’ll take him…a soulless body

There’s yelling and screaming
Scorn and lament
It’s more than sound and fury, it’s full of content
I just wish I had time to understand you
I’ve read all the books, I’ve tried on your view
It’s not until now
It’s not until here
It’s not until the witness of my family near
Embodied, enraptured, but still I rue
That someday I’ll cough and there will be you
Enticing affection with smile infused
I try to forget, I try to refuse
The turmoil you cause I tried to heal
Ameliorate the hurt that she feels
The light is off
This cannot be fair
The record stops
And you’re standing there
And it’s you I hear
Neither fear nor faith
It’s you, the one with the answer:
“Life will waste away.”
Away
